Read a review of this wing from The Foiling Magazine
In collaboration with ALUULA, Ocean Rodeo is pleased to bring the composite materials revolution to wing foiling. Whether you’re generating insane speed and drive to take to the air or forgetting your wing as it flags out behind you on a wave, the Glide’s extreme low weight, smooth handling, and balanced design delivers the highest levels of performance.
GLIDE A-SERIES
40% LIGHTER
*Than industry standard Dacron framed wings
Featuring a complete ALUULAcomposite airframe!
A quick flex response air frame brings this wing alive in all conditions. Next level performance for all levels of rider delivering supreme bliss while riding wind chop, swell or breaking surf.
FULL ALUULA LEADING EDGE
Built entirely with ALUULA. Half the weight and many times more resistant to flex, abrasion and puncture than dacron; the ALUULA leading edge delivers a next level handling in all wind conditions.
INDEPENDENT INFLATION VALVES
Precision controlled inflation pressures for both the boom and leading edge independent of each other.
ALUULA ERGONOMIC SHAPED STRUT
Ergonomically shaped and built entirely out of the ultra light, ultra strong ALUULA composite material, the Glide A-Series’ strut increases profile stability, offers more rigidity and control, while also significantly reducing the weight on the trailing edge of the wing, keeping the strut up when one-handed drifting.
FULL ALUULA LEADING EDGE
Made entirely of ALUULA G-Series 82gsm composite, the A-Series airframe is the lightest, strongest and most responsive on the market.
With 6 times the tensile strength of Dacron leading edge fabric, the all ALUULA leading edge stiffens and lightens the entire wing, providing the most refined handling and performance in all conditions.
The leading edge can be tuned to higher inflation pressures than is possible with Dacron to allow further stiffness to the airframe.
RIDGE LOCK SEAM
This innovative seam technology is designed specifically for ALUULA. The ridge moves the stress of the stitch holes and threads to the anti-compression ridge. Strategically located to add additional stability to the leading edge, the Ridge Lock Seam helps stabilize the wing in gusty and high wind conditions.
REINFORCED CANOPY - ALUULA POWER BAND
A band of ALUULA 82 gsm composite runs from wing tip to wing tip along the connection seam between the canopy and leading edge. The band provides increased stability and handling in all conditions.
INDEPENDENT STRUT AND LEADING EDGE INFLATION
Individual leading edge and strut inflate / deflate valves specific pressures to be set for each spar. All Ocean Rodeo wings feature an industry-first high pressure strut which is safe at 12psi. Each size of Glide wing has a recommended PSI for the leading edge.
MATRIX HANDLES (pat Pending)
Ultra light and strong, the removable Matrix handles shine when wave riding or connecting chop on prolonged downwinders, keeping the trailing edge of the wing as light as possible for the ultimate in drifting performance.
UNITY WRIST LEASH
Included with all Ocean Rodeo wings, the Unity wrist leash is designed not to let go during a flogging.
WING BAG
Built with the same time-tested materials and zippers as used in our kite bags, our Glide wing bags are built for convenience at the beach and keeping your wing in good shape while stored.
